Any tips for moving overseas in the military?

Question

Husband and I are moving to Germany, he is in the Air Force

Answer 1

learn German and don't pump gas off post unless you have coupons

Answer 2

Use Govt housing if you can, use govt furniture. Its not bad and yours won't get tore up in transit (they really don't reimburse worth a c**p).  Learn the money. Its not monopoly money its real money. Calculate all the things you buy on the German economy and and ask if you would pay that much in dollars for it. Money conversion can be tricky. So can internet access, cell phones, long distance calls, auto insurance, etc etc etc. Good luck.

Answer 3

to what region?

and what do you want to know?
